Check out the release date announcement trailer and our thoughts on the game. Super Dungeon Maker is coming…

If there was an icon of the early noughties, Jet Set Radio seems to be a contender. It had the music, the feel, the unique look and gameplay. SEGA had a winning formula. And then they just stopped. Until now. The original game was popular enough, and the sequel on Xbox seems to have a decent following as well. But, like Shenmue, it just kind of dropped off the planet. Which is a shame, because unique colourful games were sorely…

We’ve been doing a lot of stuff around Fantasy Flight Games in the last little while, and that isn’t about to stop anytime soon. We have posted content about Lord of the Rings: Journey’s in Middle Earth and the Star Wars Deckbuilding Game! Soon, we will have content for Star Wars: Imperial Assault and Descent!

I have a decade-long history of playing and buying board games, and while I love unique game experiences that create their own world and rules, I like licensed games just as much. Recently, I’ve become infatuated with games that include miniatures, and my first big dive into that gaming genre has been with Lord of the Rings: Journey’s in Middle Earth. To be honest, miniatures games have always intrigued me, but I’ve never pulled the trigger because of the cost.…

Over the past few weeks, my father-in-law and I have been sitting down over lunch breaks to play Lord of the Rings: Journey’s in Middle Earth. Although I purchased all of the available content for the game, we began with the starter scenario, Bones of Arnor. I call it a starter scenario, but it’s not really. It’s a great scenario that, even on it’s own, stands up as one of the best cooperative experiences I’ve had in a long time.

One of the things that has disappointed me the most about LEGO Super Mario is that most of the sets don’t really display all that well. These are LEGO sets meant for playing with, not just displaying. Sure, the various characters do look great on the shelf, but in general, entire sets do not. I do believe that the Bowsers Air Ship set probably would display well, but not many others. Peach’s Castle, however, displays beautifully (not on a 12-inch shelf mind you), and is fun to build too! Let’s dive in.
